Bill Losey, America’s Retirement Strategist®, published a new blog discussing how to figure out the best age to retire.

Saratoga Springs, NY. – June 13, 2013 – Bill Losey, Retirement Intelligence publisher and Retirement Advisor, recently published a blog discussing the best age to retire. In this blog, found on his website http://www.BillLosey.com, titled “The Best Age to Retire Isn’t an Age At All”, Bill explains that ultimately you are in control of your own best age to retire.

Bill Losey writes, “Thinking about retirement, and when you can do that, shouldn’t be about how old you are. It should be about when you have enough money saved that you can live the lifestyle you want with the interest and dividend income generated by those savings. Unfortunately, this is an unfamiliar concept to most people.”

“Most people look to their employer or the government to make the determination of what is the best age to retire,” he continued. “The problem with that approach is the government only offers four choices; age 62, 65, 66 or 67. These four choices are, of course, tied to when you are eligible for Social Security benefits (age 62) or you are entitled to your full retirement benefit (FRA) at age 65-67, depending on your year of birth.”

Bill goes on to explain how to determine the amount of retirement savings you need to retire, and how Social Security fits in to the equation.

“What’s most important for you to take away from this article is the fact that you are in control of your own best age to retire. That should be exciting to you. With that knowledge in mind, you can now view Social Security as bonus income that will come to you some years after you actually retire. How cool is that?”
